Merry Christmas!

 MERRY & BRIGHT

Filipino Christmas Cheer! Lights! Yard Decorations!

Missionary Madi is a crazy girl. She does not really love morning and it must have been very strange to wake up Christmas morning in the Philippines. For the first time in 20 years to find herself thousands of miles away from family and friends to celebrate one of her favorite holidays in the humblest of fashions. Every year for months before Christmas she would watch all of her favorite Christmas movies in anticipation of the Christmas season. Our Christmas wish for her would be that she was feeling like the Madi that we all love and enjoy. We are thankful that she was able to bless the lives of the Filipino people in Bohol. What an amazing young woman she is. 

Christmas Morning Young and Tired!

Missionary Madi was excited they put together treat bags and took them around to the kids who would have had nothing for Christmas. Fun for the sisters to give rather than receive. 
We are blessed with so much while others have so little.

They went to the White Peoples house for a real American Christmas dinner. Lots of treats like brownies and ice-cream. Missionary Madi was lucky to have her own personal stylist who loved to do her hair. So Missionary Madi had an extra special braid for the Christmas party.

ALL IS CALM.

 ALL IS BRIGHT!

Missionary Madi was MISSING us and then............
Made Gingerbread Houses! Went to the beach. Beautiful! Hard to miss snowy Utah when you are walking in warm white sand on an incredibly beautiful beach in the Philippines. She will most likely never have another Christmas like this.

Traveling does not agree with this girl!
